If anyone in the Spurs organization has cause to be a bit loyal to the team, it's Danny, and he showed it. I bet he could have either taken more money from somewhere else or held out for some more money and waste more time. Getting the business done right away with no drama just proves he's on board.

Contrary to popular opinion, I felt they were going to find a way to get this done. I had some trepidation that the Pistons might blow them away financially, but I always felt he'd stay if the offer was relatively close.

He's not quite in line with what Aldridge would mean, but he's honestly not that far off, in terms of them contending. They would not have been able to do so had they lost him, even with Aldridge.

Not to project, but the Spurs are a team that keeps players around. Green can be set for life in the Spurs' organization in some capacity. We'll be seeing Bonner for years, for example. I can see Green as the same, if he wanted.


Bonner is a very smart guy. Wasn't there an article that he had the highest IQ in the league, or something like that? He sucked in the playoffs, but he knows the game. I'd be shocked if they didn't try to keep him in the organization.

Green is what Ime Udoka should have been, and Ime is wearing a suit on the sidelines. So, yeah, Green could be in SA long, long term.

Can't make that comparison due to the soon-to-explode salary cap and the fact that Curry was thought of as a major injury risk at the time.

:lol They're incomparable. Curry's ankles were a huge question mark at the time, as good/promising as he looked, he not only wasn't what he is now, but wasn't on an obvious path to being what he is and the current economical climate of the league is significantly different.

Take a look at SG on the depth charts - by far the thinnest position in the NBA. Replacing an elite defender who is one of four players to shoot over 40% from 3 on over 100 3s in each of the past 4 seasons would've been impossible. Excellent move to retain him (even though he drives us crazy sometimes).

Now that Danny is back. How about brim binging in his cousin gerald green? I know he is a bit of a wild card, but he is also very talented. Having Danny here might help him to buy into the spur way and focus more on defense. At 6'7" very long and very athletic he would be nice rotation guy.

Danny didn't need to take such a discount. He will be signed last along with Leonard. Him getting a couple more million a year will not impact the team at all. It's one thing to sign a lower contract to fit the salary cap but the Spurs will already be capped out when Green signs.

The underrated signing of the off-season. Duncan's generosity is and has been key for years and is on another level. On a basketball level, Danny's resigning changes everything. Or actually makes sure nothing changes. What happens if he takes the money the market was giving him? We'd be totally screwed, forcing to play Manu or Kyle or Simm City or some stopgap player at the 2, with a terrible bench.

Didn't realize a reducing salary would have bumped them over the luxury tax in year 1. But no reason not to frontload deals to create maximum flexibility in the future. Plus if I'm a player, I don't mind getting the money now. Then again, could argue why would Peter Holt want to front the money now unless there's tangible benefit (beyond having another $500k to $1.5mm of added cap space in outer years)?

The fact that the Nets essentially went from being a huge tax payer to a non-payer, plus Golden State shedding Lee and stretching Gerald Wallace (don't think they could stretch Lee), and with the higher than expected jump in the salary cap, being OUT of the tax isn't as attractive as it might have initially appeared.

Yeah, honestly that's ridiculous. He's in the prime of his career, no reason he had to take such a ridic paycut like Tim and DWest.

Tim, Tony, and Manu have been taking less money their whole career. Then we have guys like LMA, DWest and DGreen.. No wonder we have a shot at winning a championship every year because we get guys who only care about winning. It makes me appreciate these guys more and more.

Yes, Cleveland is a huge taxpayer but don't think they're a repeater this year.

Aside of Spurs, 6 teams should pay the luxury tax: Thunder ($20M), Heat ($22M), Clippers ($17M), Warriors ($22M), Bulls ($6M) and Cavs (maybe $60M). It's a total of $147M which means that if Spurs go under the tax, they will receive about $3M in tax money distribution.
Spurs' ownership might have given the green light not to care about these $3M but it's still a significant sum. I guess getting Aldridge and the mammoth future TV contract with Spurs not fearing going into tax territory next season could entice ownership not to care too much about that money.
Spurs' ownership has never seemed to really care about making at much money as possible. It seems that their main goal is not to lose money. Spurs are lucky not to have someone like OKC's owner at their helm.

024
07-17-2015, 11:26 AM
Green should not be taking less money... it's not like the extra $1-2 million in cap savings will be a significant difference with the cap shooting up. I understand the rationale of Green wanting to give back to the organization after they turned him from a d-league player to an 8 figure salary earner but he already took a huge discount at $45 million. Why take a bigger cut to save money for the already rich owners?

I don't actually believe that. Green is going to make head scratching mistakes no matter what and Pop will yell at his ass again. Even so, looking at other contracts that have been offered, it's pretty obvious that Green left a lot of money on the table to come back to the Spurs on a discount.

It does now coincide with Parker's contract and LMA's option. 2018 may well be a rebuilding year for the club.
more like retooling year (s) :lol.. With Kawhi in peak years and Aldridge settled in but with Timmy/Manu surely gone and maybe even Parker we won't be title contenders but a 48-52, 6-8 seed type of Pop-coached team..

Though 2017 may be another off-season like this one.

2017 is the big one as we'll have max cap room again, but I'm not sure there will be many big time free agents moving that summer. If Durant and Westbrook leave, Ibaka would be a good player to pick up and he would fit well with Aldridge. Really it's way too far ahead to be thinking about it.

Next summer could be really interesting depending on how much salary Manu and Timmy take up. We might be able to get Batum at a discount with Aldridge and the french connection but unlikely we'll be able to afford him.

Danny said himself money isn't everything. He wants to win and be on a legitimate contender. He knows his role and he's happy with, plus a chance of legacy plus getting paid for it in a city he loves working with people he considers family. He bought happiness with his pay cut and he's still a multi millionaire starting on a NBA contender when at one point he couldn't stay in the NBA. Guy knows what he wants, and he appreciates his blessings. He said on his instagram how thankful he was for his position and his raise.

Good Guy Danny.

Yeah we don't do rebuilding. Too long of that shit and everyone will stop caring, lobbying for a football team and the Spurs will move and become something else. It's too bad Davis is off the table long-term now. Maybe we can lure in a star with our cap space once TD/Manu are gone though.

Batum and Diaw as playmakers with the second unit will be fantastic but I'm not sure if Nic is willing to come off the bench.

IIRC, with the cap to explode next summer, virtually every team in the league will have max cap room?

Next summer most teams will have cap room but I'm not sure how many will actually have room to add a max player. Most lottery teams will but in terms of contenders I don't think many will have max room. Assuming Timmy/Manu retires and doesn't take any salary next year, we could have $13.5m next summer and near $40m in 2017.

In 2017 I think at least 20 teams will have space to add a max guy at which point it'll be crazy.

I want to be one of the greats, try to be a Hall of Famer. But to get a raise for a job that you already thought was the greatest in the world, you can't ask for more."

The days of Danny Green having trade value are long gone. He's more of a throw in guy to match salaries and push trades through. Most teams would probably be unwilling to trade their scrubs to get one in return. I mean, what's the point? Who would it benefit?

01-27-2018, 02:16 AM
If the Spurs had done the right thing and kept Simmons at $6 million, they'd be able to move on from Green and even though he's not as reliable a shooter he's a great penetrator and defender.

Instead, as easily foreseeable, they're screwed:

No cap room to sign a replacement even half as good as Simmons would have been.

And they might have to give Green another big deal now that he's on the wrong side of 30.

It'll be awesome to have Mills and Green soaking up $25-30 million in cap when neither can create for themselves or others and are in their 30s. At least Green can defend ... for now. Once that falls off ....

01-27-2018, 04:36 AM
The bad thing about Green is he can't create offense...the point is that the same exact problem is the one of Mills (with the difference that the latter is supposed to play point guard).
Ther's a reason why our offense looks instantly better when TP comes in the game, and it's not only because he's in the system from the beginning...it's that he has developed playmaking skills from the beginning of his career. Mills, Green, Forbes and Murray didn't do that...and the only one with some time to develop something is the latter (but, till now, the impression is that he's not a natural at passing the ball and play at the right pace and reading defenses).
For as awful as it can seem, the only real play makers we have on this team are two old guys (TP and Manu) and KA (for obvious reasons i'm taking White in considertion)...but, differently than Simmons, KA, for some reasons, has been considered impossible to be played in his natural role.

You haven't done your Clip Art shooting splits recently because you don't like how they look. Anyway, it doesn't matter what the stats say, since I didn't mention them. The reason why he's likely for an All-Defense team is because the Spurs have the first or second ranked D without Kawhi, and Green's the only guy on the team who has a good defensive rep besides Kawhi. It also doesn't hurt that Danny is on pace to average a block and steal per game, which isn't something guards do very often.

But let me guess: You expect Anderson or Gasol to get All-D nods instead.

Anderson should get some buzz on defensive teams. I figure the fact he is an unknown will screw him over. When he's not on top of his game on defense the team isn't the same. (Since Kiwi isn't playing and the team has a bunch of undersized guards playing wing positions.)

Danny has been in a shooting slump the last 8 games or so last time I looked. It has coincided with others being in slumps too, and questionable shot selection. He's had some bad forced heaves...

I'm not 'calling out' Green, I'm discussing the scenarios of his free agency and the implications of that free agency result. And seeing that this thread was about his last deal, it seemed as good as any to discuss his next contract.

And if you think Simmons has been a dumpster fire with that salary ... Well, didn't you also like the Mills deal on July 1?

And I still keep seeing this "he didn't want to play here!" excuse and it's just weird to read.

What was he supposed to tell the media? "I hate having to sign to come off the bench for a crappy lottery team instead of a team from the WCF, but the Spurs refused to give me any money and now I'm stuck. I hate Orlando, but I had to get at least a little money in my career no matter who it's with.".

I don't see why you felt the need to address that part of my post. It didn't apply to you. If I had meant to respond to your view exclusively, I would have quoted you. The only reason why this thread is on the first page is because people felt the need to call him out.


And if you think Simmons has been a dumpster fire with that salary ... Well, didn't you also like the Mills deal on July 1?

I'm a bit confused by this. I said nothing about his salary. He's been a dumpster fire because he's a mostly shitty player. He'd be a shitty player at the min too. It's just who he is. The second half is a misplaced ad homenim. I could have been incorrect in predicting Mills' future value but correct in Simmons' current value. Anyways, I updated my view of the Mills deal in a recent thread either yesterday or the day before. I actually don't think much has changed when looking at the deal landscape in July compared to now.

Of course he's going to spin that he wanted to spread his wings.

You have to know this is baseless speculation. You're projecting into him views that you want to see. Simmons was pissed that the Spurs backed out of the Suns S&T before (as far as everything reported) he asked the Spurs to withdraw his QO so he could go where he wanted. It might surprise you, but some guys would rather be big fish in small ponds. LMA almost picked Phoenix because of touches. Numerous free agents turned down the Spurs over the years for comparable or inferior deals elsewhere. Do I think money was involved? Yes. I do think had the Spurs offered more than Orlando, Simmons would have come back. Dude has a family to think about. But I also think role was the bigger part, and the lack of respect he felt by being little more than a contingency plan for a Green trade and not the new starting SG by default.

Personally, I didn't want Simmons back really at any price. Had Danny been dealt, I would have seen Simmons as a way to fill the roster with limited resources. But Gay is a massive upgrade to Simmons, and contract-year Kyle has been consistently better than anything but the absolute best/lucky Jonathon. They miss Gay and Kawhi, not Simmons. Jon is off being the fringe-NBA player he was always meant to be without a stronger supporting cast to put him in position to succeed.

What is so odd is that the Spurs were clearly banking on moving Green for someone last year. From the White pick to the Paul acquisition to keeping Simmons on a chain.

hell no! he is not worth that...a good game shouldnt be a pleasant surprise at his age and experience level...let him walk

What I find hilarious is how the same people bashing Danny are the same people advocating for Murray :lol. They argue that even tough Murray grades out as literally one of the worst offensive guards in the NBA (not hyperbole) that his defense and rebounding make him more valuable.

Then they argue the EXACT opposite for Danny :lol

Playing devil's advocate, Murray just got started in this league. Danny, on the other hand, has been around a while, and you have to legitimately wonder if this is his ceiling, and what that ceiling is really worth.

When he got his current contract, peeps talked about hometown discount, but considering his overall performance during said contract, I'll have to say it's right on the money.

Discount is relative to the market though. There are guys that got more money than Danny who not only struggle offensively but didn’t make an All NBA Defensive team after the contract

There's bad contracts all over the league. That's why you re-evaluate whenever a contract is up. This always has been a 'what have you done for me lately' league, Patty notwithstanding...

I get that, but the only people saying it was a bargain were people at the time it was signed. Even after the fact (like last year) getting an all nba defensive player for that money is considered pretty good. So on all levels.

Yeah that was his ceiling and a great one. Unfortunately post-contract Green is one of the worst starting shooting guards in the league. Average (at best) at his only specialty on offense. Sad.

2017/2018 league average 3P% - 36.2%
Danny Green post-contract 3P% - 35.8%

The worst thing Buford can do is extend a player that's aging like milk.

Look son, I'm bringing facts to the table here and those facts are Green isnt a Top-4 defender on the team, he's a below average 3P shooter, and he's literally provided the team with 0.0!!!!! Offensive win shares. Disgusting stuff from the easily replaceable scrub....

Dumbass can't even tell the difference between an ad homenim and an insult.

Green is a top-15 perimeter player (meaning PGs to combo-forwards) in every defensive stat despite playing like a third of his games with a groin injury that limited his movement and elevation. If you weren't so lazy, you'd've been able to see that. This "top-four" thing does nothing but demonstrate your lack of understanding about how defensive stats work.
